It is our H&S policy that all adults will wear sun hats when it is hot. Today when I asked the staff to put on hats one team member told me she is really funny about things being on her head, when I reminded her that she had signed up to the policies, she said she thought it just applied to children and not the adults and as she was an adult she would make up her own mind about what she did.

All of our parents are very supportive and do not want us to have to close Well, one parent who is helping us with advertising decided to search on google for preschools in the area and noticed that our setting does not appear anywhere in the searches! We have registered with yell.com, netmums, Thompson local, Leicester mercury, google itself and others too. We believe this may be one of the reasons we have had no interest as all the other local settings come up on google searches. Does anyone know how we…
